“I’m nervous as hell,” said Anne-Marie, using a slightly stronger word than hell which we can’t print here.

“Wait, this interview isn’t live is it?” (No, thank goodness.)

Having successfully avoided an Ofcom fine, the singer continued: “I’m not nervous about the performance, when it comes to singing I’ve got it down, but when it comes to the rest of it, I’m bad at that.”

The singer, whose hits include Heavy, Ciao Adios and the Clean Bandit-assisted Rockabye, is currently gearing up for the release of her debut album.

“My music is constantly changing because I am. I’m writing it and changing as I’m writing,” she said.

“So there’s going to be a lot of different subjects on there that I talk about, I’m putting my life into it, so I hope people like it.”

Sabrina Carpenter set admirably simple goals as she traipsed the red carpet at Wembley Arena.

“I just don’t want to trip. I’ve been halfway down the carpet already so I’m off to a good start,” she told us.

The singer said she’s excited about new material she’s working on – but was tight-lipped about the collaborations she has lined up.

“The response to [her latest single] Why has been incredible, and I’ve been writing my third album, so that’s why I’m here. I’ve been in Sweden, London and Norway writing so I’m excited.

“I’m definitely collaborating with some really cool people. I’m always up for changing and growth and trying new things. So you’re definitely going to hear some new sounds, whatever they are, on the new album. There’s already some that I’m really excited about.”

Any hints about who those duets might be with?

“No! That would spoil it. I can’t spoil it. You’ll see a very cryptic Instagram at some point and then you’ll be like ‘It’s coming!'”
